To sign up, each player must complete a player registration. Before the season begins, Junior players will attend evaluation sessions within their own age group based on their year of birth. If a player wishes to play the season in an age category above their own age category, they can also attend the evaluation session for the higher division – provided they are in the final year for their own age category.

For those that are new to playing hockey, Ice Hockey Victoria offers a development program specifically for beginners of all ages. It is highly recommended that players gain their experience through the development program before signing up for league play unless otherwise experienced from playing ice hockey elsewhere.
